Bread was one of the main food items for all classes in ancient Egypt; it was produced in a wide range of qualities and in a range of different shapes - many of these had their own name. Specific kinds of bread were made for ritual offerings to statues of the gods.
So it is no surprise to find the following terms for what we simply call bread:
Hrf
aAdt
nsty
mswq
As
AH
Da
HTa
Hsb
t imy tA
t nbs
t
t n tp r ("bread for the mouth" of a god)
All of these words and phrases are missing their vowels, which Egyptian scripts do not record, so we can not know how they were pronounced. What is written a or A above is a catch in the throat, not our letter a. The general term for bread was t, which may possibly have been pronounced ta.
